  We need more information.  What are you trying to do,
what functions are you using, what packages?
What are the results of sessionInfo() and traceback()
[run immediately after you get the error]?
  I'm guessing you're trying to do something with
the embedding dimension of a time series, and that you
might (?) be using package fractal, or GammaTest,
or fNonlinear, or tseriesChaos ?  (These came up
in an RSiteSearch for "embedding dimension")
